Cargo Ship Vehicle in Under an Iron Sky | World Anvil

Cargo Ship

Cargo ships are most commonly found in the ocean on trade routes to various countries carrying various cargo from precious metals, gems, food, and various other goods.

Power Generation

Ships that are built in Nuivurze which is controlled by Pfussäwinn Witts use Konn Prünnzu as a fuel source that is burned in reactors on board. Coal is also kept on board or other fuel methods in case there isn't Konn Prünnzu.

Propulsion

Cargo ships often use engines to push them around in the water so they can around the ocean. These engines are primarily powered by Konn Prünnzu which works in much the same as electricity.

Weapons & Armament

With Miyla almost constantly in a state of war cargo ships will sometimes have weapons on board but not all shipping companies allow weapons on the ships because that is space being taken up that more cargo could in.

Armor and defense

Many cargo ships are equipped with an array of anti-piracy defenses which are also helpful against rival powers. These defenses range from proximity sensors to a high-pressure water cannon that is powered by Water Destruction magic. More high-tech cargo ships may have long-range acoustical devices (LRAD) that deploy a pain-inducing sonic wave, stun grenade launchers, electric wire obstacles, barbed-wire anti-boarding obstacles, and many more.   If the ship has to pass through hostile waters it is not uncommon for cargo ships to be escorted through waters with military vessels.

Communication Tools & Systems

Most cargo ships have a more complex Fioje Prisa system that allows communication with more than just two-way radio. They need to be able to talk with more people so magical frequencies that the stone can be atoned to to talk with other ones.
